great job dcs.
let me be the first to post and it's regarding Incoming MSG.
When i first got my unit from Philippines, it was loaded with 1.66WWE and with this version i was able to select preloaded or customized WAV as incoming SMS tone. But it went missing when i upgraded to Waxx's 1.72 and even now to the latest o2 UK 1.72. Anyone else experiencing this?

Latest ROM upgrade??
I have read the o2 blurb, but can other o2 uk user tell me, what do I really get from this upgrade that makes it worth all the hassle of resetting my device and re-installing all of the hardware please?

Personally, I find the performance to be improved and also stability. Also, when a call comes in, the Answer button on the dialog works, which didn't before. As part of the extended ROM, O2 have provided improved video streaming over GPRS plus video for MMS (I haven't used either yet). The OS itself has the Microsoft user update 2 included. Of course, the 181 release also has Blackberry included.

OK. Strange, but at least you are sorted
Edit: Maybe it is something in O2 Active that causes the problem? I have uninstalled it, so perhaps I am unaffected. Could other people with O2 Active still installed throw light on this?
msn
Hi, I have installed the new rom (1.72.187). Everything is ok but Messenger. I can surf web sites using gprs and wifi but i cant connect msn. I always get the same error. "Logon to MSN Messenger failed because the service temporarily unavailable." But i can connect with my laptop. Any idea? thanks....
dcs,
have you tried Battery Pack Pro v1.1.10 on this? The last time i used this with 1.66WWE, i keep getting total blackout on my XDA2 with Bluetooth light steady blue and i hard to perform hard-reset. since then i was afraid to try again.

Have you applied the latest patch from Microsoft? Take a look here: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/msnmessenger/pocketpc.mspx
It does state that you cannot access the service unless it is applied. Quote: "Customers without the updated software will not have access to the Service until the download has been completed."

I also have identical experience using the Battery Pack Pro v1.1.10 on 1.60 WWE. Being scared to have a try on 1.72. Should anyone pioneer on this, please also let me know. Thanks
Blackberry?
I'm trying to understand what the benefits of having Blackberry are. The Blackberry website says you get all the stuff which I'm sure I already have with my XDA. Things like e-mail and IE. Except for my e-mail which is blocked by my ISP, Plus.net (I can only view/download e-mails, not send new ones).
What's the big improvement I'm supposed to get with Blackberry? :?

I am running v1.1.1 with no problems on the v1.72 Rom. Worked fine with 1.60 also but no experience of v1.66.
have already installed New ROM 1.72.187
in this ROM, i think it work faster than 1.60 but liked other 1.72 ROM from T-mobile.
In the Ext ROM ,it doesn't include some software such as GPRS monitor.
Now ,I desired to cook it.
More stable without question. Only thing that I have found is that the O2 logo can't be moved. Dam thing stuck in middle of title bar. BT Tools works ok. Better wapsupport for o2 active, though XDA seems to forget it's connected and will drop connection and reconnect when conecting to O2's wap service.
Still it's a worthwile update.
I am having problems with Fonix voice dial. When I adda voice tag I get an error that it cannot update, hard or soft reset doesnt help. Also if I restore my backup using the built in backup program I find that streaming video and blackberry programs both vanish from my xda 2.
Feed back
looking good so far. I have added all my apps including BPP 1.1.1 and everything works fine.
SRS now works as well whereas before it trashed my xda II
I am from Asia but installed this UK o2 ROM and found its totally working good.
However, one thing is the autoconfig function has gone.
Anyone knows how to get this from the previous AISA rom?
Blackberry Config
Anyone been successful with this yet?
Ive activated the install and the BB client tries to connect somewhere over GPRS, but eventually suspends itself.
Ive got access to our Corporate BES so should be able to get it working. However, there seems to be some mention in the ROM upgrade guide about a desktop client manager (needed on PC to download the policy).
Ive seen posts that say O2 is not making it availble until Jan 05 - anyone confirm?
Oh, and Im actually using Vodafone
I can't connect my Live messenger when I am using wifi, does anybody know how to fix it.

I suggest you do a hard reset without any extra installed and check whether you are able to connect to wifi and WLM.
If still failed, most likely is your hardware problem.
Tried it aswell, even installed it on my 02 atom stll had the same problem then
Live messenger
Here's what I did to get it going, if this helps.
Turn on WIFI, make sure you found a router and that you are connected, check with your browser to ensure data flow.
Click on the Windows Live Icon, not the Windows Live Messenger.
Once you got Windows Live running, start Live messenger and it should work
At first, I was clicking on the Live Messenger login and it never worked, it seems once you got Windows Live running once, it solves the problem.
From here on, I can start it directly after connecting to a WIFI without having to click on Windows Live before, kinda like a one time setup thing, maybe it writes something to the registry, go figure, it's Microshaft right?
Hope this helps.
start/settings/connections/network cards/
tap the network adapters tab.
in " my network card connects to:"
make sure you got " The internet" selected.
if you got "work" change it and reboot the device.
hope it helps.
failling that it means tha wlive is not properlly installed. maybe missing some reg keys.
This problems has been mentioned on here some time ago but its unresolved for me?
Using a Hero on orange UK (last official update and all fine), a website forums that i am an admin on is not possible to use on my phone? the site is shipais.com. The ais part of the site works fine but when i click on the forums link it tells me i am not permitted to use this board? thing is tho that when i use Opera its fine and when i use wifi its fine too, its only an issue when using 3G
I have tried a lot of option changes in the browser settings but still no luck, cant even view the forum as a guest? just the same error screen as above with a log in option, i input my username and password and the same error comes up!
Some other members on the site also use android but dont have this issue, i thought it might be an issue with orange and the apn but why if opera is working ok? I use some other forums that require a login and they work ok.
I realise this might be some one off quirk specific to the site but hope someone can shed some light on it

Hi, my HTC mozart has seen better days.
I can't access my wifi menu, my "about", and everything that has to do with wifi..
First started to do this when I upgrade to 7.5 wp.. Then never stopped. Does anyone have a solution for this?
I tried hard reset and backup restore with zune. nothing seems to work.
Best regards.
